well my silly vegetarianness probably won't be too helpful for you, but i'm a vegetarian taco FIEND... i eat them at least 5 times a week... vegetarian bacon is up there, too... egg salad... regular salad...
the grocery store has these almost-ready-made stir fry things that might work well for you... it's veg's and seasoning (and sometimes chicken or beef) in a bag in the frozen section, and you just heat and eat basically, but it is more "cooked" than something you just pop in the microwave... i use the morningstar vegetarian chicken or beef strips in them and they are delightful...
i also make a lot of vegetables with a kind of cheese (peas & feta is my current favorite)...
tonight for "romantic dinner" i'm making gryuere cheese puffs as an appetizer, a salad with pears, gorgonzola and walnuts, prosciutto citrus shrimp over pasta (tim isn't a vegetarian, i'll just have mine with sauce), and chocolate fondue with fresh raspberries, strawberries, and bananas for dessert...
of course, this is going to come out unrecognizable. but i like pretending i can cook. yesterday i left the stove on for 9 hours, and last week i burnt bacon to the point that the whole apt. was close to beinbg evacuated due to smoke...

I do keep salad around pretty regularly as well.
